Migrating to v3¶
This is intended to document the changes and considerations for migration to Nornir-Nautobot 3.0. Please Note this is nornir-nautobot's version number, not Nautobot's version number. This major upgrade did coincide with the release of Nautobot 2.0, but the version trains are on their own path.
Inventory Update¶
The inventory has been updated to reflect the changes in Nautobot, specifically that Region
and Site
have been collapsed into Location. Please see the inventory docs for the latest documentation.
Dispatcher Update¶
The dispatcher function signature has substantially changed. Overall, this will allow for easier configurations to end users and specifically users of Nautobot's Golden Config plugin. Please see the relevant dispatcher docs for the latest documentation.
The dispatcher now prefers senders in the following order, in which framework
examples would be netmiko
or napalm
and network_driver
examples would be cisco_ios
or arista_eos
.
- If there is a custom_dispatcher, only use that
